pkgo

pkgo is a simple CLI tool to help you find, install and manage Go packages.

Motivation

I was tired of having to search for the full package name when I wanted to do go get. So, I decided to build a simple tool to automate this process.

Usage

You need to have Go installed and GOPATH in your PATH.

You can install it by running:

go install github.com/estevesnp/pkgo@latest

You have the following commands available:

• pkgo search <package>: Search for and list all packages that match the given package name.
• pkgo get <package>: Get the package with the given name.
• pkgo install <package>: Install the package with the given name.

All commands have a -l flag to define the number of results to be shown, for example pkgo search gin -l 10.

Additionally, the pkgo get command has a -u flag to update the package, for example pkgo get gin -u.

TODO

• Add tests
